In 2008, the PSP was graced with the hilarious game Prinny: Can I Really Be the Hero? Developed by the same people who made the Disgaea series, the game was a hit upon launch due to the cute violence that the game had to offer.
Two years later, Prinny 2: Dawn of Operation Panties, Dood! was released to equal success. The sequel offered multiple bonuses and even some interactions with various other Disgaea characters. The sequel was just as, if not more hilarious than the first.
Since the initial releases of the games, not much more news had come from the series, not even a potential sequel! However, a light at the end of the tunnel seems to be shining, and at the end of the tunnel is the Nintendo Switch.
In recent news, a brand new collection is coming for the games titled Prinny 1•2: Exploded and Reloaded. Not only will the collection feature Nippon Ichi Software's original games, but a ton of other goodies!
Aside from the DLC that is featured in each version, "Just Desserts Edition" of the collection is set to feature an art book, soundtrack, and an Asagi Wars EX Alpha Championship Edition poster. Yet, one of the coolest additions of the edition is a building block set of a Prinny!
To get fans excited, NIS America released a brand new trailer for the collection! Hopefully, this will mean a new beginning for the Prinny games. Make sure to share your thoughts on the series in the comments, and don't forget to check out the new trailer!
